Shadows
Always depressed
Always afraid
Always obsessed
With the monsters I've made
They reside here in my head
With all my secret thoughts
They whisper they want me dead
Against them for seven years I have fought
But now there's a ray of light
Piercing through the gloom
It streaks across the night
To save me from my doom
But exactly what can I do
When all I've known is death
I want to be saved too
But there's fear throughout my breath
I belong here in the black
The sorrow and pain
I know I'll always come back
Over and over again
So pull back your outstretched hand
Leave me in my pit
The shadows have marked me with their brand
And in them I will sit
